Tempest thought of buying supplies excited for her first victory even when she didn't showed it on her face.
First she thought of buying a phone. She had dreamed to acquire one ever since she was a teen. She went to a phone shop and bought the most recent one that had arrived at the three rivers town.
Afterwards she bought supplies in bulk and stored them in her system inventory. As she was passing by a particular building that didn't match like the others, she was stopped by something.
Standing in the building was a man. He was in a midnight black suit matching his broad shoulders. His hair was as dark as the night which cascanded down his waist in a free fall. Even though his back was facing away from her, she could tell that he was very handsome.
He was surrounded by other men in black suits that weren't matching his. He looked different even the surrounding atmosphere seemed to shift as he was there.
Tempest wondered what building that was. Her feet already moved towards the building even before her mind could process.
Infront of the man was another one ahead of them. Taller, older.
Tempest had a faint whisper about closing down the building. She walked towards the high tech looking reception greated by a beautiful looking lady. She welcomed her warmly
Miss? Welcome to sky doman admission headquarters...what can I do for you?
The reception lady introduced making her confused
Sky domain?
Yes, sky domain. This is the only headquarters in county A where people get to register as students for the sky domain academy..
With the mention of the academy, it finally clicked in her mind. The best academy in the whole continent that produce masters worldwide
Do you want to register? There is ongoing admissions of new students... She asked hesitantly as if afraid of something that tempest couldn't pin point.
The old man who was speaking to the man that attracted tempest suddenly appeared beside her. He tried to grab her shoulders but she immediately took a step back evading the hand involuntarily. He froze. The whole atmosphere froze
Tempest glared at him
What are you trying to do? She spoke coldly
Meanwhile in her mind system! What in my ancestors ass was that?!
REPORTING TO MASTER! THAT WAS THE SYSTEM REFLEXES APPLIED TO MASTER WHICH INSTINCTIVELY EVADE WHEN MASTER IS DISTRACTED! IT ONLY WORKS WHEN MASTER IS DISTRACTED!
I apologize miss...are you here to apply? He asked with a hesitant smile that questioned tempest's mind
Yes..
Oh that is great! He turned towards the receptionist and gave her some orders.
The receptionist called her and told her to follow her. Tempest followed curiously and obediently. She paused and turned to look at the man who had made her step in this building.
He wore a black mask which covered his lips, jaw and nose but his eyes. Those eyes captivated her. Emerald green sharp foxy eyes. She gazed at her with curiousity and she couldn't get anything from those eyes. They looked at her as if they knew everything about her. Then a slight expression passed through: recognition, curiousity or maybe just maybe obsession
Crafty.. tempest said then turned around and followed
The woman took her Infront of a large computer monitor. She directed her to stand in front of it and she immediately obeyed
Is this how you admit people in the academy? I heard that it is not easy for just anyone to enter. Even the talented finds it hard to enter.. tempest spoke
Since you are our....let's just say we are giving you a special admission...even though you have a very low cultivation level... The woman spoke with no contempt or disgust.
Tempest was not unfazed because she saw that the receptionist was already at the peak fifth rank of the low realm.
After some time, tempest spoke up again.
Who is that man just now?
I don't know either but manager Switzer was so respectful towards him, so I can guess that he should be a big shot from the capital... The receptionist reasoned then gave her a card containing some of her details
Suddenly, the high tech wrist watch of the receptionist buzzed.
The receptionist pressed a button and a hologram of manager Switzer appeared. He gave her some instructions but tempest was not listening. She was busy admiring the function of the wrist watch
After the call, the receptionist saw tempest's curious gaze.
This is echo 1.0, a recent development that has began to surpass the phones. It functions more than the phone...this is a basic requirement in sky domain academy...I was instructed to...
Tempest cut her off
How much is it? Where can I buy it?
The receptionist hesitated
But...but...
I want to buy it! I am not messing with you
The receptionist began to sweat profusely
The market price is 200000coins
The receptionist said with a sigh
Tempest immediately took out a bag of coins and placed it on her hands. The receptionist gaped
The watch... Tempest demanded
The receptionist nodded then left and brought for her a black wrist watch. Tempest immediately took it and wore it. She skipped out of the place.
Miss! Wait!
The receptionist called out but she already left
